Investing and Lending

Goldman Sachs provides a variety of services to bring investors together with projects and organizations in need of capital.

These range from low- and middle-income housing initiatives to businesses of all sizes that are looking to expand. We invest our own resources and those of our clients, continually looking for new ways to turn opportunities into growth.

Direct Private Investing is offered through the Goldman Sachs Merchant Banking Division (MBD). MBD is the primary center for Goldman Sachs' long term principal investing activity, and Goldman Sachs has operated this business as an integral part of the firm for more than 25 years.

At Goldman Sachs, we believe that strong communities are the foundation of a prosperous society. Through the work of our Urban Investment Group, we find innovative commercial solutions that address social and civic challenges in communities across the United States.

Launch With GS is Goldman Sachs’ first for-profit initiative with a gender lens. The firm believes gender equality is an economic imperative and that supporting women’s economic empowerment will drive meaningful growth for our clients and shareholders.

The Goldman Sachs Principal Strategic Investments group seeks to invest in fast growing technology companies that are uniquely positioned to benefit from a deeper business partnership with Goldman Sachs.

Diversity is essential to our mission as a firm. It lets us develop better ideas, respond to the needs of our clients, and ensure that our people can work at their maximum potential. Learn more about our commitment to diversity and inclusion.
